2.4.2.3 Agent Manager
All of the IP DSLAM agents that are to be managed by the IDL Manager must be
“registered” to the system. The “registration” process is to make the system aware of
agent’s IP address and alias name. Once an agent is registered, it is put into the
“demount” agent pool, which is still “inactive” for the network monitor. You then have
to activate it if you want it to be monitored. An active agent can also be deactivated
from the monitor for certain operational purpose when necessary. Agent Manager is
designed for you to perform these operations.
